This young lady was shot in my hometown of Marshall, TX by a evil guy for no apparent reason. She was delivering the local paper and was going above and beyond by getting outside of her car and putting the paper under a half opened garage door so the customer ( a senior) wouldn't have to get out in the weather and also the paper would not get destroyed by the weather.

The guy basically shot her from behind for no reason.  People know these newspaper carriers do not carry money.  He was just going to kill her to kill.  He shot many other shots to make sure he took her out.

She crawled to the car and the rest of the story is in the article.

Not only is she a newspaper delivery person, a very low income job, but  she has 2 other jobs that she works full time ( one is asst manager of a convenient store that we all know is not making a ton of money) that she will miss no telling how much time trying to recover.  Her husband is also a newspaper delivery driver and when you add it up, they are going to be in a deep amount of financial peril ongoing forward with her having zero income and him (the husband) helping take care of her and him missing work, etc



Here is the story from the paper of the shooting from the day before

Thanks, I do not know her and family, but my niece worked with her at a time at the convenient store.  Just a hard working person in a bad situation through no fault of her on.
